Society & Culture Things that Make You Feel Old

Fame and money was the one thing he didn't want ironically

Wonder if they built the band up before ,...being rock stars would make a difference...who knows.
Then foo fighters wouldn't of happened.

Like mother blood bone ...b4 pearl jam .

 

[Pistol Night]

I've seen a few of them around .
Hope the mums and dad make them listen to the music.
Not use the tee shirt as fashion pieces

My 5yo some how has Tear for Fears, Ram Jam, Midnight Oil, AC/DC to name a few amongst his more predictable Benson Boone and Doja Cat sections on his Ipad playlist. I still piss myself when he belts out Everybody Wants To Rule The World word perfect when he thinks no one can hear him. Very diverse tastes already.

Kurt despised the whole thing once they hit it big. You could tell by his attitude in interviews the last year he was over it

INXS busted their nuts to break into the US market.

I saw INXS on the Kick tour at Memorial Drive, Michael Hutchence had some stage presence.

Was watching a pet shop boys interview.
Chris giving Niel shite about his stage presence.....

 

[rocker_oz33]

Was never going to work..

When the PSB released Nightlife they could have been singing about my life at the time, it's very much a take me back to a time and a place album for me.

Very biased and showing how out of touch i am but 90s/early 2000s was endless amounts of music i loved. Ive genuinely tried to get with he times and embrace today's artists and sounds but just cant do it

because 80% of it is shit Pistol

could prob count on two hands how many new bands ive liked since the 90s
mind you i prefer the heavier stuff

 

[JackOutback]

Hope the mums and dad make them listen to the music.

Might draw the line at Rape Me.

There's still just as much good music going around today as there ever was, it's just harder to find because we no longer have commercial stations releasing it in an easily accessible way because everyone was listening to the same thing at the same time (this has also removed the social element that came with discovering music... nowadays everyone is discovering music in their own time). Also, adults have more things demanding their attention and are less inclined to spend time searching for new music when they can just put on some 'classics'.

Have you not seen how many kids are rocking Nirvana T-shirts these days (unable to detect the irony in buying mass-produced merchandise to make soulless corporations richer).

1990s retro fashion is in.

it's pretty much a hauntology of culture, there is very few new things and retro is very much in.

Look at Culture Kings web show and its American sports, WWF and Oasis right now, or even more locally Uncle Reco.

Retro sells.

Thats me to a word. Too lazy to search for anything new so either turn to the old playlists or podcasts. I sort of lost all interest when the Hottest 100 went from my taste in music to the modern youth taste which I turn full old campaigner if I get started on
